1976 Bmw 2002 Auto, Sahara Beige In Good Condition No Rust!!!! on 2040-cars
Miami, Florida, United States
I bought this car recently (about 8 months ago) with the full intention of keeping it for at least a few years. Didn't think I was not going to be able to spend enough time on the car (I have 7 mo old baby keeping me busy!). I've tackled a few small projects, which I will detail.
OK, this is a 1976 BMW 2002 auto. Last year of production for this classic. Pretty much stock as far as I can tell, other than small modifications like Weber 32/36 double barrel carb and most of the SMOG equipment removed. Engine runs strong, does not overheat, even in 95 degree Miami weather and stop and go traffic on I-95! Does not smoke or burn oil. A few tiny drops of oil here and there. Transmission shifts perfect. Will kick a little bit when R is engaged. I'm quite certain a new tranny mount will take care of this. Suspension is good. Needs new tie rods and possibly some bushings also. Brakes are fine. Matching Michelin tires with 75-80% life left. Interior is decent. Passenger side bottom has a rip. Drivers back a couple small holes. Rear seats are ok other than a repair done on the upper RH corner of the back. Door cards and rear panels are fine. New seat hinge covers. Both doors open and close perfectly fine. So do the windows and vents. Carpet is OK. Coco mats for the front only in great shape. Dash has a few cracks, but it's still very solid. Instrument cluster is working fine other than clock, wich is not. I have a spare cluster with a tach that I intended to replace but never got to it. This will go with the car together with a list of new and used spares which I list at the end. Glovebox is in good shape and closes good. Headliner has two rips. Otherwise clean and tight. I have an OEM headliner, pre-sewn. This will go with the car also. Both sunvisors are in perfect condition. The car is equipped with A/C. All the components are there but it does not blow cold. Compressor clutch does not engage. I did not spend any time figuring out what could be wrong. It may be as simple as a fuse, freon charge or a complete rebuild. Who knows. Blower works in all speeds. Radio is there but is not connected. Dome light works. all backlighting works good, inlcuding the dimmer and shifter light. All controls work fine. The body of the car is in very good condition. There is no rust other than some surface pitting in the paint, mostly on the roof. Shock towers are impeccable. Rockers are also perfect. With minimal preparation and nice paint job this car will look like a million bucks! Body is very staight! Trunk is very clean and there is no rust at all. OEM jack and tools are present. A brand new tool roll is inlcuded. Engine bay is clean. Picture does not show the windshield wiper fluid tank, but I have a used one with no leaks and new cap. Just never installed it back. As mentioned most of the SMOG equipment has been removed or disabled by previous owner. I removed all the unnecessary wiring related, which was left behind disconnected. New Optima battery 30 days ago. I cleaned, primed and repainted the batter bracket. New hold down rod. New grounding strap and positive cable (OEM). New headlights (Sealed beams) replaced 30 days ago. Parts offered with the car: Used set of door cards and one rear panel. Used instrument cluster with tach. Used but great condition OEM rims with hub caps. New OEM front licence plate bracket. New OEM headliner. New and used assortment of body clips/retainers. New thermostat. New fuse kit. Used sealed beam. New OEM LH rear light gasket. So, this is a very solid car. Fantastic candidate for a quick restoration project (paint, upholstery and other small things here and there). Don't expect a showroom car. This one is not! I have been driving this car 4-5 times a week for the past several months without a single incident. It's a daily driver as-is. This 2002's are going up in price weekly, so there is no loosing in buying a good solid one like this. Inspections and test drives are welcome and encouraged. Bring your friend, mechanic, father in law, etc. All this BEFORE you commit to buy the car. Ebay is not a game. Posting this costs real money, so don't play with me! Bidders with less than 2 positive feedback please contact me before bidding. Otherwise bids will be cancelled by me. Payment is as follows: immediate deposit of $500 by paypal. Balance no later than 5 days after auction by cashiers check of any bank with a branch in Miami, FL, or cash. I could accept Paypal or c/c, but check with me before considering this. Car is located in Miami, FL 33133. Driven almost daily to Key Biscayne, FL 33149. Will assist buyer with shipping. But all arrangements of transport will be made by buyer. All costs related to be paid by buyer. As you can expect this car is offered AS-IS, no warranties implied or expressed. FL clear title in hand to my name. To arrange for a viewing or test drive contact me at 786-999-4811 or e-mail me. |

BMW reveals M4 safety car with innovating water injection system [w/video]
Fri, Feb 13 2015Racing series don't just pick their safety cars at random, or use just whatever car is lying around. These days the car that sets the pace at the front of the pack is typically provided through consideration by a sponsor. In the MotoGP series, that's BMW and its M division, which have served up the Official Car of MotoGP since 1999. What you're looking at is the latest, and it packs some innovative technology on board. Aside from the matte black wrap with BMW's iconic striped livery, upgraded aero kit, retrofitted interior and emergency equipment, this BMW M4 coupe packs a new injection system under the hood. Only instead of injecting fuel, it injects water into the combustion chamber – something that wouldn't usually be recommended, but BMW insists actually aids in the combustion process. The idea is that the temperature of the air being mixed with the fuel inside the engine is usually hotter than ideal, so the system injects a fine mist of water into the collector in order to reduce the air's temperature... sort of like one of those hydrating misters at an amusement park or outdoor mall, but in an even hotter environment. The system brings the temperature of the air down to a more optimal temperature, helping it combust better. The process is said to yield a number of positive effects. For one, it reduces knocking. For another, it can make more out of lower-octane fuel where higher octane isn't available. It also can control the adverse effects of higher ambient temperature on the combustion process. But most of all, it increases output and reduce fuel consumption by around eight percent. Whether that eight percent is worth the added weight of the system – particularly with water pump and a 1.3-gallon tank in the trunk – is up for debate. But we'd imagine that the Bavarian engineers have weighed very carefully. Of course there's also the matter of refilling the water tank, which BMW says would be carried out whenever the safety car is refueled, but in real-world conditions would only necessitate attention once every five top-ups at the gas station. By now you might have guessed that BMW probably didn't develop this system just for the MotoGP safety car, and isn't planning on keeping it confined to the racetrack. Instead it's being tested and demonstrated on the safety car before being rolled out on production models in the future.
BMW i8 and M1 reunited in mid-engined Bavarian retrospective
Mon, Dec 1 2014The BMW i8 may be the cutting edge today – it did, after all, just win our Technology of the Year award – but as rare an event as it is, it's not the first time that BMW has put out an extreme mid-engined supercar. The last time was in the late 1970s with the M1, a Giugiaro-designed, (partially) Lamborghini-developed piece of exotic machinery. The better part of four decades later, Auto Express has brought together an original M1 with its spiritual (if much more advanced) successor for the video comparison that was bound to happen. The question we can't help but ponder, initial sales success aside, is whether the i8 will mature into a classic in the same way the M1 has.
Next-gen BMW X3 caught in the cold
Sun, Mar 15 2015The BMW X3 might be getting a bit long in the tooth, but fans of the sporty CUV can rest easy knowing that Munich hasn't forgotten about it. The third-generation crossover was caught squeezing in some end-of-season winter testing by our trusty spy photographers. According to our spies, the 2017 X3, code-named G01, will be underpinned by a new modular platform that promises more space in the cabin and better visibility out. Beyond that, the next X3 will get a range of B-series engines; expect four- and six-cylinder options, as well as a plug-in-hybrid option (eventually). Our spies also report that BMW will finally offer some more performance-oriented options, starting with an X3 M40i and eventually expanding into a X3 M. Beyond the oily bits, it looks like the X3's looks are set to evolve, growing slightly compared to its predecessor. BMW's trippy camouflage, though, prevents a closer analysis of the next-gen CUV's styling. Check out our full gallery of spy shots to see what's coming for the X3.
